Power On First/Off Last Device?

gentlemen:
1. the lazy americans i referrred to in my post are me and my family, not the other more conscientious folk on agon
2. to which end, the wife and kids cannot or will not turn down the volume on the preamp before powering off the system nor expend the effort to turn on/off the components in the correct order ( i do notice that, probably because i'm using tubes, i'll still get some power transients even when the volume is tuned down)
3. the adcom ace is precisely the type of device i'm looking for; i see that panamax/furman among others make similar conditioners w/sequencing
as ever, thanks for the feedback

thanks gbart. i did already order an adcom ace and will report results when i get it.

i received my adcom ace, hooked it up, and as wolf et. al, have stated, it works perfectly--i can wholeheartedly recommend it, or similar conditioner/sequencer. now if i can only find a device that (unlike wife + kids) puts the cds back in their jewel cases, all my problems would be solved. thanks again for your help.
